Milestone Systems and Nedap Enter Strategic Partnership

Community bonds are strengthened with the integration of Milestone XProtect VMS and Nedap's Access Control Platform

COPENHAGEN/GROENLO – June 22nd, 2016. Driven by the market’s requirement for a seamless integration between security systems, Milestone Systems and Nedap enter a strategic partnership. By means of this partnership they commit to a deep integration between the Milestone XProtect VMS and AEOS Access Control from Nedap, as well as a close cooperation in their mutual goal markets.

As demand rises for smarter buildings the need for integration between security systems also grows. This is important for facilities and cities with integrated IT-systems for monitoring and control. The use of open platform technology has been instrumental in integrating Nedap access control with the Milestone XProtect VMS.

“This strategic partnership is important not only for us but also for our ever-expanding partner community. To us access control integrations are an important focus area and we are thrilled to tighten the ties with such an important player in the market,” says Thomas Lausten, Vice President of EMEA at Milestone Systems. “We look forward to expanding the partnership and increasing the benefits for both Milestone and Nedap partners.”

“The best of video management and access control will be combined into a solid, seamlessly integrated security solution,” says Sieger Volkers, Managing Director Security Management at Nedap. “We’re committed to developing a deep integration between our Access Control platform AEOS and XProtect reducing delivery risks and complexity for our mutual partners.”

Nedap is a manufacturer of intelligent technological solutions for the themes facing society today. Enough food for a growing population, clean drinking water across the globe, and smart networks for sustainable energy are just a few examples of issues Nedap is working to address, always with a focus on technology that matters.
